C-Reactive Protein - developinganaesthesia

High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is an inflammation-related biomarker related to risk of stroke in several studies. A meta-analysis including 54 prospective cohort studies (n=160,309) found an increased risk of ischemic stroke (RR per SD logCRP 1.44, 95% CI 1.32-1.57) adjusted for age and sex; this attenuated (RR 1.27, 95% CI 1.15-1.40) when further adjusted for other risk factors. ................
